Branched Bur-reed




Branched Bur-reed (Sparganium erectum) are common waterside plants well distributed in the county but they are extra special when you come across them in your local patch. About a hundred of them were almost hidden among the fading stems of Hemlock Water-dropwort and Great Willowherb in Bailiff's Letch, a small spring at East Stobswood. I'd like to know what the eggs are on the underside of one of the leaves.
